Chalk it up as another product I wish to have one day. I like my toast crispy and because of that, every once in a while, I’ll leave it in the toaster a little too long that all I wind up with is burnt, inedible bread. The Transparent Toaster by Inventables Concept Studio solves that problem by utilizing clear panes of heating glass that allow you to clearly see precisely how dark your bread is becoming. That means no more surprises while you’re half asleep in the morning waiting for the toast to pop up.

Not only is it stylish, trendy, and gives an aesthetic appeal but it offers practical functionality that would definitely improve the user’s experience. Unfortunately, the design is just a concept and the glass does not currently get hot enough to toast bread. Perhaps in a couple of years, a company will figure out how to make this concept a reality and burnt toasts will be a thing of the past. When that happens, I’ll be first in line.
